Rotor Blades That Kill Poem by Kurt Philip Behm

Rotor Blades That Kill

Rating: 5.0


We never safeguard our progeny
by overprotecting our kids

The blankets that we spread
and fences we build

Imprison,
rather than defend

Ensuring weaker and hapless offspring
—inside a diminished and helpless world

I agree. We do our children no favors by denying them the exposure needed to the realities of life. Interaction and knowledge strengthen us. I enjoyed reading your words of wisdom.
